Every day, we're amazed at the power of people in small communities. 100 people save over 300,000 acres of Maine land from development. Fish and forest and wildlife abound, along with long-held Maine traditions.



CEI is a private, nonprofit Community Development Corporation and Community Development Financial Institution that provides financing and support for job-creating small businesses, natural resources industries, community facilities, and affordable housing.

CEI Founder and President, Ron Phillips, noted as "brilliant and passionate...helping to reshape Maine every day." How lucky we are to have Ron as "tireless advocate for economic justice."
Alan Caron: Grateful for Maine and those who toil to make it better
